Geocaching Australia

I came across an app called Aurasma/HP Reveal today, and after trying it out, I figured it could be used for geocaching. The only problem is that geocachers without a smart device can't access it. from wiki: "Aurasma/HP Reveal is an augmented reality platform. It is available as a software developme...

The cheap dollar stores usually have some, and I found some in Kmart on Saturday. Depending on how much you are willing to pay, ebay also sells some.
